TO THE EDITOR:

The Confederate symbol is part of our past. By sanitizing history is paramount to making up our history. Why? To make us feel good? Don’t allow the latest politically manufactured absurdity create hysteria around some long dead soldiers monuments. Know our history, good or bad. This entire issue was dealt with through a long process of reconciliation.
